Sarcoma of the oral region is extremely rare and ultrastructural studies of the tumor are limited in number. We collected oral sarcomas, such as fibrosarcoma, malignant fibrous histiocytoma, liposarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, angiosarcoma, alveolar soft-part sarcoma, solitary plasmacytoma, and osteosarcoma, and performed ultrastructural studies of these tumors. The value of these studies for an understanding of the biological behavior of the tumors was then investigated. In these studies, electron microscopic examinations of oral sarcoma were of assistance in our attempt to establish correct diagnosis and histogenesis. Data from the studies of oral sarcoma by light microscopy, electron microscopy, and immunohistochemistry should be accumulated.
The authors report the case of an infant with urticaria pigmentosa who developed infantile fibrosarcoma. The tumor was successfully resected but the skin lesions have persisted. This is the first report of a fibrosarcoma in association with urticaria pigmentosa. A brief review is presented of the available medical literature on associations of solid tumors with mastocytosis.
